The two factors of a quadratic equation can be multiplied to form the original equation. Let the missing term be a:
y² + 15y + 56 = (y + 7)(y + a)
y² + 15y + 56 = y² + (7 + a)y + 7a
We can now compare the coefficient of the like terms, either the one with y or the one without y, and find the value of a.
15 = 7 + a; a = 8
OR
56 = 7a; a = 8

Second factor is (y + 8)

y² + 15y + 56 = (y + 7)(y + a)

y² + 15y + 56 = y² + (7 + a)y + 7a

We can now compare the coefficient of the like terms, either the one with y or the one without y, and find the value of a.

15 = 7 + a; a = 8

OR

56 = 7a; a = 8

Second factor is (y + 8)

The sum of two prime numbers is 85. What is the product of these two prime numbers?
hodyreva [135]
Observe that 85 is an odd number. That means, one of the prime numbers must be even to have an odd sum with another odd number. As we know, the only even prime number is 2. Hence, the other number is 83. So, the product of these two prime numbers is 83 x 2 = 166. Thus, the answer is 166<span>. </span>
